Oh my god. I loved this book. I am not sure what other way to put it; it is just so so amazing. And a must read. A must. The story is so easy to fall in love with, kind of like Cinderella, only better (A) And much more.. creepy.I loved Cinder. Wasn't sure at first, with her not being entirely human, but I loved her even still. She was amazing. Strong, which she had to be, living with those horrible people. But she was also kind, and loving. And funny. A perfect leading character :)
Prince Kai I fell in love with right away. I loved that we got a few chapters from his POV, although I do wish there had been more. Loved everything about him. Although I was kind of mad at him near the end. A little bit. But he is so kind, and caring, and good looking ;D
I also really loved Iko and Peony. But sigh. Sad and mad about what happened to them.. But they are amazing characters :D I wasn't sure at first if I liked the doctor, but near the end I decided that I did. He wasn't so bad. But oh, I hated Adri and Pearl. Such evil people. Which you will see for yourself when you read it ;)
I loved the world it was set in. Fell in love with it easily and quite fast. Don't want to say too much, because that would be spoilery. I just really loved everything about the place, and I loved (almost) everything that happened. I hated the.. uhm, evil Queen. Which I won't talk about, because of spoilers. But yeah, she is evil. So evil.
The plot is amazing. And I can not wait to figure out what will happen next. It ended on kind of a huge cliffhanger, which I hate, but it did leave me wanting for more ;) Just sad it is still a whole year until the next one :p I hate waiting.
Only downside: Wish it was longer. Also wished there were more romance :D There was some, and lots of cute flirting, but oh, I wish wish wish there would have been more. There must be more in the next book. Right? Oh please, let there be :) This book had no triangle, and there better not be one later on :p Hih.
Anyway, this book is a must read, and you better buy it! :)
<3 you won't regret it.
It's like everyone loves this book! :D And that's actually why I ordered a copy of this yesterday even though I never really wanted to read it when I first saw it. :D Excited to start it though. Hope it'll arrive soon. :)

I loved Cinder! Glad to hear that you did, too! You're right about the side characters--they were just as lovable as the protagonist! (Peony... sob!)
